3/3/14

Hey everyone!! how you doing? nother week down already!! nothing to exciting happened during the week until the end.....

Lunes: Went home and had a noche de hogar with the family lopez because it was there daughters chrsitinas birthday shes is inactive but we are going work with the whole family and hopefully bring it was cool we ate pizza and cake. We alos taught our homeboy pablo who hopefully will have a little more intrest the next time we see him or we are going ot have to let him go.Got back exhausted because basketball was just bruttle.

Martes: We had a zone meeting today but because i already had it i just went for the first little bit and got taught how to be a district leader and then went back home.. it was good. Then we made some lunch in home..... that delicious biscutsw and gravy... and my comp cooked eggs. it was sick!! afterwords i had to go to the cyber and take care of new district leader responsibilietes which was super fun we also were told we were going to have division with the AP´s but then they never came out so that was cool and through us off alittle because we had planned to split the area for the day, but oh well. It was really hot and nobdoy was home anyway, We had a NDH with the family that did the joke on my comp and they are super good. Afterwords we ahd a lesson with a family that was almost completely in guarani and although i dont speak it fluently yet... i could understand quite a bit... so that was cool. 

Miercoles: Today was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo long and nothing intresting happened... we walked all day.. no one let us in and it rained pretty good! the one lesson we got in was a lady whos husband doesnt like us and who wants the family to become members but we still need to meet the husband in order to get somewhere.. but yeah that was basically our wednesday.....

Jueves: WE had a sweet lesson at lunch today where this less active 19 year old guy cried at the end while he was praying it was super awesome and after that we had a super sweet lesson with luis one of our most promising investigators but its still not that promising yet.... but the lessonwas awesome it started with him saying he couldnt be baptized and then by the end he said he would be at church this sunday! so that was super awesome! After word we found this family who let us teach there daughters and brother so hopefully someday we will be able to teach the parents. WE did alot more contacting which was fun.... and then we had a super good lesson with lorena and her mom and kids..... and that was the day.

Viernes: Well lunch was super good i learned how to make one of my favproite things from here in paraguay. after we got to know a new part of our area including an 8 yearold preparing for baptism. and there neighbors that seemed to really want to get baptized! so that was super cool! i realized that i havebeen in paraguay for6 months as of today so that was cool! supwe fast! we have been having struggles with the new investigaors and finding new people to teach but hopefully we can get better at that as the week goes on! 

Sabado: Had to cook lunch again today.. bishop bailed on us... afterwords we strted a fast which was awesome fir tiday because it was hot and full of walking and we got lost a little bit! so with out food we wandered and came home exhausted..... but it was alright we are hoping that we will have a good day at church tomorrow.

Domingo: Well church attendance went down a little bit today.. we had 56 with 0 less actives and 3 investigadors!! but the three investigaotors were friends from a member.. not a single one of the poeple we were teaching.. it was a mom and her two dughters.. we got to know her a little bt and put a lesson for later that day. Then i had to bless the sacrament, and after we had to fend for ourselves and cook lunch again.. so much struggle with the food this week. but then we went and visited that mom and her two kids to find out the husband didnt want to talk to us... then i asked if we could get to know him a little and after a little explaning and a little convinvcing he joined us! which was super cool so we found a family!! they look super awesome!! after we ate some super good meat on a stick.. asaito with loreano and matías and ilse and then we went home and drank a lot of ades juice.-.... its this super good soy juice down here... htne we called it a night and a week... but i really hope things go well with this family!!! im super excited about them!

Lunes: today we played some pik-e volleyball which is volleyball with no hands.. like soccer volleyball. I played with elder bristol (who will probably be an apostol some day) his comp and elder jordan and his comp from the ccm. it was super fun and rainy! my and bristol have lots of plans after the mission.. cant wait to share them with you... well that was my week
